Jenny Rae Watson, age 40, passed away on November 3rd after a long and courageous fight with cancer.

Born in Dallas, Texas, Jenny was adopted and lovingly raised by her mother, Linda Watson, who preceded her in death. Jenny grew up in Watauga and spent most of her life there, forming deep roots and lifelong friendships.

Jenny worked for many years as a top sales representative for several companies, where her drive, charisma, and unmatched people skills made her stand out. She had a natural gift for connecting with others—her outgoing personality, warm smile, and quick humor allowed her to make friends wherever she went.

Jenny had a passion for fun and cherished every opportunity to spend time with the people she loved. Above all, her greatest joy in life was her daughter, Chloe Rae. Jenny often called Chloe her “miracle baby,” a blessing she never thought she would have. Their bond was the center of her world.

She is survived by her beloved daughter Chloe Rae; her brothers Patrick Cheshire, Jon Cheshire, and Joseph Peavy; and many friends and loved ones who will forever carry her memory in their hearts.

Jenny will be remembered for her strength, her spirit, and her ability to bring light to every room she entered. Her presence enriched countless lives, and she will be deeply missed.
